Starting a Business
So you are contemplating starting your own business. CONGRATULATIONS!

Business ownership can be extremely rewarding, but remember, it is generally very hard work.

Below we have listed online resources which cover many areas needed to successfully start your business. Before you get too far, make sure that you have completed your Business Plan, which will help you throughout the rest of the process including financing and anticipating upcoming issues.

Again, always remember that SCORE is available with counselors to help you through the process.

  • As you embark on your journey of entrepreneurship, remember two things:
  • If you really want to do something, you will find a way. If you don't, you will find an excuse.
  • While sometimes things go wrong, never justify failure.
